What a preliminary site intelligence brief covers

Every brief is manually prepared for your candidate site. Rather than generating synthetic certainty, the deliverable organizes verifiable public records into nine clear diligence sections — with high-resolution aerials, CAL FIRE hazard overlays, and transmission tie-in paths.

Section 01

Candidate-Site Overview

Synthesizes candidate location details, assessor parcel identification, general plan designations, and primary developer assumptions for the evaluation.

Section 02

Grid & Interconnection Context

Reviews published utility substation proximity, transmission line corridors, known queue filings in the cluster, and published hosting capacity signals.

Section 03

Parcel & Jurisdiction Context

Documents cadastral parcel boundaries, local municipal or unincorporated county jurisdiction, underlying zoning classifications, and overlay districts.

Section 04

Permitting & Planning Signals

Searches county and municipal planning repositories for conditional use permit (CUP) requirements, hearing records, and discretionary approvals.

Section 05

Environmental & Siting Considerations

Reviews state environmental databases, mapped flood hazard layers (FEMA), CAL FIRE severity zones, and identified biological or wetland buffer intersections.

Section 06

Relevant Project Activity

Catalogs documented operating, queued, or withdrawn energy storage and generation projects within the immediate cluster or substation catchment area.

Section 07

Evidence Classification Framework

Every piece of information is explicitly categorized into Verified by Public Record, Unknown in Available Data, Conflicting Across Agencies, or Deeper Diligence Needed.

Section 08

Identified Source References

Compiles a complete bibliography of statutory records, agency portals, GIS layers, and filings used in the brief with timestamps and publication dates.

Section 09

Questions for Next-Stage Diligence

Translates open questions and flagged conflicts into actionable, specific inquiries for your electrical engineers, legal counsel, and environmental consultants.

Clear diligence handoff, zero fabricated scores

We do not invent customer case studies or display mock sites with fake capacity numbers. The brief gives your team a source-backed summary of what public records show — and equips you with the exact questions to ask formal study engineers and local planning officials.

Founder-led launch offer

Before option spend, get the public evidence organized.

Send us a candidate California BESS site and tell us what you are evaluating. They can inspect the public sample brief first. If the site fits current scope, we confirm the paid screen by email and deliver a structured brief with sources, findings, unknowns, conflicts, and next-step questions — no call required.

Launch pricing begins at $1,500/site. We review scope first; payment is handled after written confirmation, not through a sales call.
